Hobao Hyper MTX Full Review - Most durable RC car, period. Best 1/8 RC monster truck.

[@GreatLakesRC]

Nice review. Hobao is finally getting some popularly. It’s good to see other companies making good quality RC’s!

[@twrecks116]

Hobao is Back!

[@skyekaptain8010]

They never went anywhere,always been awesome rigs.

[@AussieRCPlayground]

My first HoBao MT was actually branded Ofna and even back then the shocks were an issue and didn't let the chassis touch the ground, every MT I've had from HoBao has had this issue (I think). But since that Ofna truck, boy have they made some changes. Totally agree these trucks are super durable, it's definitely their forte, but tires and handling have been a weak point for a long time, and of course those shocks. If HoBao can fix those things, these trucks would be on a whole different level. Great review, really enjoyed it. Now I need to rip into mine and do some sends. 😁

[@RazorRC]

Thanks for checking out the video! Hopefully Hobao listens and makes some minor changes, I have a couple of other suggestions, but those are the main things they should focus on IMO. Have fun with your new MTX!

[@AsurasWrath164]

Looking forward to what you have to say about the mtx, vas.

[@tillyjohnson5160]

How would you suggest to make this truck backflip easier. Do you think more power or gearing will help.

[@trailblazeratv6306]

I had the Hobao Hyper 7. That buggy was awesome

[@AsurasWrath164]

The few negatives regarding durability are so easily fixed by the owner. The most important things however, the driveline and chassis are top qyality. I'm so sick and tired of maintaining arrma diffs for example. Hobao diffs are maintained once a year and you're set.

[@mact153]

Got the artr on order, have a set of losi lst shocks so might try fitting them

[@Corhndog]

Would love to see a Hobao nitro review. Love your channel!

[@Fats-yg1jd]

Great video, I wanted to update you on some of the design flaws you found on the mtx, I just bought one on the 12-27-22 and the shocks caps no longer rub against the shock holders, they extend out more with good room.

[@RazorRC]

Good to know, what’s the part number they show in the manual if you don’t mind looking it up?

[@reconrc1787]

It's a great truck. I don't think it's caught on as of yet but she's a very tough RC. The only issue I don't like is the limited space for the motor. If you want to go big block your limited on length.

[@stephanez8036]

good review ! that red esc is a fun max6 knock off ! or max8 ?

[@RazorRC]

rebranded max8 (maybe some changes, I'm not sure)

[@buttracerrc]

@@RazorRC i think it is the corally torox 185. Same as the hw max8. No Changes in Options.

[@M14armorer]

Torox definitely has more punch than a Max 8

This truck is amazing.

[@JIPPERR_1]

More of a long term durability item but good to know if things loosen up after a lot of use. Usually this comes down to materials and bearing size and size of pins and hinge points. For example I've got 2 years in on a slash 4x4 and there is so much slop I need to replace the whole chassis.

[@wasa7]

I Love the HoBao road cars but found the Sste Truggy weak. But like the Arrma 4s there not even out in the Uk yet.

[@Moggmodels23]

Hi razer rc looking good I'm thinking of buying one myself not sure too buy the roller or rtr better 🤔

[@justinwright1860]

What’s up Razor. I think I live near you. I recognize one of the BMX tracks you go too. Anyway, I saw in one of your videos that you did not like not being able to turn off the new Traxxas ESCs without unplugging the batteries. I have an ERevo 2.0 and am able to turn off the ESC after turning off the transmitter. You may already k ow this. Anyways, cheers and keep up the vids man!

[@RazorRC]

thanks for the tip, I'll try it out next time

[@daig1984]

Hi razor does kuron motor fit straight in? or do you need different size rear motor support? Also doe’s almost ready to run come with pinion gear. Thanks

[@jacoblynch9862]

Savage has been around at least close to 20 years almost 20 years ago. I've built an SS kit not long after they first came out and I do think they had a ready to run version before the SS kit matter fact yes they did because it had the .21 engine in my kit came with a .25 high output motor but that was 20 years ago.

[@grizzly6385]

Hello, whats the difference compared to the MT sport version

[@Gerar79]

Thanks for the MTX review. I was doubting which car to buy to replace the Notorius that I have sold and it was one of my favorites along with the Outcast EXB. I have already bought it and this Sunday I will try to release it. I hope I was right, greetings from Spain

[@magnusstone]

Hello! Do you think the Hobao Hyper MTX is more durable/breaks less than the Outcast EXB?

[@Gerar79]

@@magnusstone From the experience I have so far after having used it since April, the car is very hard. I have only broken the body and the anti-wheelie. Outcast EXB in the group of friends that we met there are many and there have been problems with the variators, otherwise it is very good too and perhaps easier to do acrobatics with it than with the MTX

[@alantaylor353]

Awesome review... As always.!! It's definitely made my list.!! Is there any chance you could do me a huge solid... If you have time could you let me know what the bodyshell dimensions are.? Specifically the wheelbase & width.. I can't find a new body for my Hyper 8SC anywhere so I'm considering fitting a truck style body to it. It has a 360mm wheelbase so it's hard to find something to fit it. I think it would make a decent MT. Please stay safe out there mate & best wishes from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🙏 ♥ 📻 🚁🛩️✈️🛥️🚤🏍️🏎️🚜🚛🚚🚙🚘🚗🚖🚕🚔🚐🚑🚒🚓.!

[@christopheranderson6931]

I'm back on the market for a 1/8 scale monster truck to replace my Losi 3XL-E, and I really want to like this truck. But I'm worried about the shocks long-term. Do you think Hobao will release some sort of upgrade/fix for the stock shock issues?

[@ShadeTree_RC]

lol cool video but i aint seen nobody top savagesam's mt410 halfpipe

[@illic0]

Very cool truck

[@travisgross9570]

this is more durable than an xmaxx ?

[@skyekaptain8010]

Probably not,Xmaxx is also a bigger scale.This would more compare to a Revo,or Maxx

[@reddeerrebelrc6674]

Arrma kraton 6s...by far the toughest rc ever

[@alfonxoduff]

xd, MT410

[@zappa6366]

All mine did was break

[@tonytravers5122]

Had both arrma metal folds like tacos ..diffs are crap plastic are average at best ….my410 average bashes on 4s ….needs full m2c set up to bash hard and even tekno diffs are dodgy on 6s …tekno driveshafts are like noodles on 6s ….you have to spend double at least on each truck to even get it NEAR the mtx …..with this hoboa just get aluminium knuckles add the previous version shock shafts and fill your diffs you won’t go back to arrma trust me

[@DashzRight]

Sure bro… arrma 6s line is completely dated af design, using a kraton 6s is like going back to 2010, try other car brands get out of the arrma fanboy club and expand your criteria. This hobao is the same price as an outcast exb and looks lightyears ahead, same with the sledge or tekno mt

[@jayspeed75]

Agreed. Hobao is not some off brand company, they have been around for 25 plus years. They are bigger in other parts of the world, but after getting an MTX a week ago, I think that may start to change. The machining quality and fit and finish on this is in another class. Their vs2 buggy also looks nuts.

[@alfonxoduff]

MT410 is by far, the most durble RC

[@DankePlace]

It's also 105mm shorter so not comparable, then compare the MT+2 which is 170mm shorter. You should be comparing apples with apples and the same weigh class.

[@tonytravers5122]

Only with m2c hops up otherwise it is standard for small jumps

[@gophop]

ARTR comes with a clear body and unglued tires. It's a letdown for me.

[@tillyjohnson5160]

Do you think a slightly bigger motor or gearing with help this truck back flip better

Sure
